Version: 2 Revision Date: 2013-05-22 Product Data Sheet Purified anti-mouse IL-6 Catalog # / Size: 504501 / 50 µg 504502 / 500 µg Clone: MP5-20F3 Isotype: Rat IgG1, κ Immunogen: COS-7-expressed, recombinant mouse IL-6 Reactivity: Mouse Preparation: The antibody was purified by affinity chromatography. Formulation: Phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing 0.09% sodium azide. Concentration: 0.5 mg/ml Storage: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted at 4°C. Applications: Applications: ELISA Capture - Quality tested IHC - Reported in the literature CyTOF® - Validated Recommended Usage: Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by ELISA assay. For ELISA applications, a concentration range of 1-4 µg/ml is recommended. To obtain a linear standard curve, serial dilutions of mouse IL-6 recombinant protein ranging from 1000 to 8 pg/ml are recommended for each ELISA plate. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application. Application Notes: ELISA Capture1-3,11 or ELISPOT Capture4,5: The purified MP5-20F3 antibody is useful as the capture antibody in a sandwich ELISA or ELISPOT assay, when used in conjunction with the biotinylated MP5-32C11 antibody (Cat. No. 504602) as the detecting antibody and recombinant mouse IL-6 (Cat. No. 563401) as the standard. The LEAF purified antibody is suggested for ELISPOT capture. Flow Cytometry: The fluorochrome-labeled MP5-20F3 antibody is useful for intracellular immunofluorescent staining and flow cytometric analysis to identify IL-6 -producing cells within mixed cell populations. For intracellular cytokine staining protocol, please visit www.biolegend.com and click on the support section. Neutralization1-2,8-10: The LEAF purified antibody (Endotoxin <0.1 EU/µg, Azide-Free, 0.2 µm filtered) is recommended for neutralization of mouse IL-6 bioactivity in vivo and in vitro (Cat. No. 504506). Additional reported applications (for relevant formats of this clone) include: In Vivo Capture7, and immunohistochemical staining (paraformaldehyde-fixed/saponin-treated6, and acetone-fixed frozen tissue sections13, 14). Note: For testing mouse IL-6 in serum, plasma or supernatant, BioLegend's ELISA Max Sets (Cat. No. 431301 to 431306) are specially developed and recommended. Application References: 1.

Schone MP, et al. 2000. J Immunol 165:6583 (IHC) Description: IL-6 is a potent lymphoid cell growth factor that stimulates the growth and survivability of certain B cells and T cells. IL-6 plays a role in host defense, acute phase reactions, immune responses, and hematopoiesis. IL-6 is expressed by T cells, B cells, monocytes, fibroblasts, hepatocytes, endothelial cells and keratinocytes. Antigen References: 1. Fitzgerald K, et al. Eds. 2001. The Cytokine FactsBook.
